Breaking on Macs...

It's OK on Windows browsers (ff 1.0, ie5.5, ie6.0, nn7 and opera7), but when I check it on danvine's iCapture site the top banner doesn't show and I've also had a report from a Mac user (ie 5.1 Mac) that the patterned background is bleeding through where it should be grey (#e0e0e0)...

My mac's not running at the moment so I can't check for you and I don't have safari either

However the problem in safari is probably because of the min-height as only newer versions of sfari support it (I believe). Therefore your header is collapsed to zero and thus no picture. If there is a reason for the min-height then you can imiitate min-height by applying 200px top padding to the element which will hold it open at 200px but also let it expand if required. Of course if you have content such as text in the header to follow on then you will need to give that a negative top margin to pull it over the padding. Alernatively float a 0px width float to the right of the header but make it 200px high and clear it underneath.

I also notice that you have left php tags in the css and this could hurt some browers.

I can't see why you need min-height for the image anyway. Just give it height:200px instead

I'll have to get someone else to check that for me tomorrow (unless someone here cares to have a look

If you can't find anyone to look I can get plug my old mac (ie 5.1) back in but its not connected to the net so I'd need a zip of your site so I can copy it across quickly. I don't have time to copy the page and all the images and then copy it across.

It does depend how bad the display is and whether its worth the hassle of fixing. If its readable then I'd probably leave it but if its completely broken then its probably worth fixing just for peace of mind.

The background still doesn't show up in Mac IE 5, but I wouldn't really be to concerned with it. IE Mac is going to be dead as a doornail within a year. I recently spent some time fixing one of my sites to work with it and in hindsight it was more trouble than it was worth.

Paul, I think paladin is probably right about not being too concerned with it, but I've zipped it anyway in case you want have a look sometime as it's based on one of your layouts. Please don't go to any special trouble though - only for interests sake...http://www.garciaytrinidad.com/dev/gyt_mac.zip
